    Kiton Tie question

    Level of craftsmanship should've been obvious to you prior to handing them money. Kee-tawn ties while not spectacular, are very decent. Patterns are rare, and the silks hold up more or less well. Pricing - which is a whole nother story - has gone from ridiculous to plain idiotic. Some resellers...

    Chinese Cayenne

    this is as gold as some of the comments that gets posted on MC. The Japanese literally taught the Europeans how to combine sporty handling with drivability. Was that before they introduced Europeans to the concept of eating with a fork or after ?

    The Vacuum Test: Meile Blue Moon vs. Dyson 14+

    In these twisted times, the notion of "value" has long been tossed out of the window. Products assembled by cheap overseas labor  Lou Dobbs bearing premium price tags render all references to "value" moot. Why should I feel any better knowing that Rotel, Apple, Arcam, Denon/Marantz actually...

    Triple Monks

    Properly installed fake **** > ugly-ass natural ****. Triple monks spell an overkill and one more strap to end up breaking off.

    The Vacuum Test: Meile Blue Moon vs. Dyson 14+

    I still have the Miele vac. Apart from being zee German-engineered (probably assembled by some guy named Mehmet) and NOT subject to retail mark-downs (say hello to BOSE), I fail to see what the fuss is about.

    Chinese Cayenne

    Mazda MX-5? Nissan GT-R? And a whole heap of other cars that handle damn well - much better than most of the products churned out by the US car companies. The handling aspect they've more or less gotten a grip on. What they struggle @ is combining firm, sporty handling with comfy ride. More...

    The Vacuum Test: Meile Blue Moon vs. Dyson 14+

    @ Fran Aren't stand-alone VCs aimed @ small timer market ? I should imagine for a guy who's into Krell, Mark Levinson and Lexicon-type gear to be using one of those semi-industrial models meant to be housed in the basement. Where every floor of the property boasts a dedicated port to which you...

    Shoe Damage Report & Shoe P0rn Central - Part II

    AS Moore (to handgrade spec) on the 19 last in burnished chestnut... and the same again in vintage cherry on the 48 last... and finally, latest MTO boots from EG in olive / loden suede / chestnut... Priapism

    Chinese Cayenne

    I feel that a majority of hostility against the Chinese is fear of the potential and capabilities of the Chinese. Were they handing out special pins @ the Glory to China rally you just came back from ? Car makers in Japan who've been @ it for over 50 years, to this day haven't quite figured...

    Duck, the Miracle Food

    I detest duck with intensity of a thousand suns. When even farm-raised varieties manage to come out gamey as hell, what does that tell you ? I won't go into the texture of duck meat which boasts all the tenderness of an old bicycle tire. Recall the calamitous experience of once buying $24/lb...

    Olive Oil

    I would recommend trying to source reliable brands that practice organic farming, free of GM and hormone usage. Or making your own is pretty easy if you cook a lot of meat on a regular basis. Dartagnan.com sells a wide array of humanely raised, organic meat. I just made a batch of duck fat from...

    WholePaycheck chain won't be carrying Jamón Serrano

    Gang, I completely neglected to mention Jambon De Bayonne. Ze French take on theme prischute  Fair bit milder and very pleasant. Take it for a spin, you'll like it.

    Olive Oil

    Coconut oil, lard, beef tallow or duck fat are all healthy options when frying at high temperatures.
